Golf Is Out
Since the fellows cannot get their cars for pleasure
driving, it looks like golf is out for the time being. The
golf course here is about five miles from the city and
there really is no such thing as walking to it. Some of
the fellows have said something about getting a wagon
to haul fifteen or twenty out there about once a week,
but so far all of this is taik and nothing has been done.
The golfers want to play bad enough to do most any
thing and they may figure out some way to get there
about once a week.
In the meantime the members have voted to continue
paying their dues just as tho they were getting the full
benefit of the course and in that way they will have a
nice course to go back to when there is a little more gas
on hand.
Work on the course has continued all the winter and
a large number of improvements have taken place. Some
who have not been out this winter will hardly recognize
a few places that have been cleared up or improved in
some fashion.
If we can get to the it “•" 1 ’'> — e( j ons
and all of the members will be glad that they kept it
going.

ceed James F. Byrne? as an As
sociate Justice lef f'E Supreme
Court, and former S» ".ator Pren-
I tiss M. Brown of Michigan to
I succeed Leon Henderson as Price
Administrator.
Both appointment? had been
expected and early Senate con
j firmation is anticipated after
! routine hearings. There may be
j some Republican opposition to
1 Rutledge, however, since he will
be the seventh Democrat on the
nine-man bench. GOP chieftains
had hoped Mr. Roosevelt would
j name a Republican to restore
j the court to some semblance of
j political balance.
Rutledge,,, former Dean of
, lowa Univei&ity |avr School,
now is an Associate JusJjgeu-oL
the District of Columbia
Court, and is the first Supreme
Court candidate the President
has drawn from the federal
judiciary. He is the eighth Roos
evelt appointee. In case of the
two Republican jurists, one of j
them, Harlan F. Stone, was ele- !
vated to Chief Justice by the (
President. Stone’s Republican
colleague is Justice Owen J. Ro
berts. |
The White House had let it be i
known indirectly that both Rut- .
ledge and Brown would be
chosen. Brown w'as selected soon
after Henderson's pre-Christmas
resignation. The Senatlcr was de- |
seated for re-election in Novem-j
ber, largely because he had en- j
gineered Senate passage of the 1
administration’s price control
and farm bills. t

of helping the Government to win tl>e wur, can well heed the above statement about War Bonds from

j New Potato
| Variety Gains In
I
! Popularity
i
i
The Sequoia variety cf Irish
j potato, developed by N. C. State
i College horticulturists and made
I available to the public only a-
I bout two years ago, is rapidly
creating a place Her itself in
North Caorlina farming.
Tested side by side with other
|of the older varieties commonly
grown in this State, the Sequoia
I has consistently outyielded its
| competitors, according to re-
I ports of qcunty farm agents.
One of the most outstanding
I examples of the superiority d!f
the new potato comes from a
CPfedmont county where 19 farm
i ers tested the Sequoia in com
petition with the cider, widely
grown Irish Cobbler.
Reporting on the procedure
carried out, O. F. McCrary,
northwestern district agent of
the Extension Service, said each
of the 19 growers in the demon
stration planted 10 pounds of the
Sequoia and an equal amount of
the Irish Cobbler.
The two varieties were grown'
on the same type of land, withj
the same kind and amount of i
fertilizer, and the same kind oL
cultivation. Accurate records)
were kept and turned in by 15
of the demonstrators.
The records showed that the
total yield cf the Sequoia pota-:
toes was 2,462 pounds and the!
total yield of the Irish Cobbler!
only 1,638 pounds. This was an!
increase in yield of 824 pounds |
in favor of the new variety, or
50 percent better than the Irish 1
Cobbler.
Because of its excellent yields)
and its resistance to diseases and ;
insects, the Sequoia will be
planted by even larger numbers;
l.f North Carolina farmer this
year, McCrary said.

QUESTION: How do peanuts
compare with soybeans and cot
tonseed as a producer of vege
table oils needed,in the Wjir v'ef
fort? . ■
ANSWER Pleasure for meas
ure, the peanut is the heaviest
yielding of the principal oil crops. |
says Dr. E. ft. Collins, Extension
agronomy leader of N. C. State
| College. According to the U. S.
i Department of Agricultiye, the
i average oil yield of the peanut
crop over the past five years has
i been at the rate of 226 pounds to l
the acre as compared with 167 j
pounds for soybeans and 72
pounds for cottonseed. However, J
cottonseed is ordinarily regarded
as a by-product' of fiber produc

should be fed to a dairy cow
each day?
ANSWER: John A. Arey, Ex
tension dairy specialist of N. C.
State College, says that cows will
consume about 3 pounds of sil
age per day for each 100 pounds
of live weight Or to state it an
other way, a 1000-pound cow
will eat about 30 pounds of sil
age during the day. Silage should
be fed liberally during the win
ter months. Many good feeders
mix their grain ration in the
manger with this- silage.
QUESTION: Are barley, wheat
and rye good feeds for work
stock?
ANSWER: Oats and corn are
the standard rations for
and mules, according to L. I.
Case, Extension animal husband- \
man of N. C. State College, but
he says that barley, wheat andj
rye can be fed to workstock if
the grain is crushed and ground.!
Wheat and rye should be fed in 1
limited amounts, he said, and
they should be mixed with oth- '
er feeds to prevent digestive dis- j
turbances. Cottonseed meal is'
often used as a protein supple- 1
ment, but a safe rule is not to j
feed more than one pound of
cottonseed meal per 1,000 pounds
liveweight of the horse or mule.
QUESTION: How many lights
are needed in the poultry house
to “extend the day” and increase;
winter egg production?
ANSWER: The rule, says the!
Extension poultry office at State j
College, is to provide cne watt
of light for every five feet of
floor space. This means that a
20 x 20 foot poultry house needs
80 watts of lights. Two 40-watt
lamps will do the job. The Ex
tension poultrymen suggest that

the lights be placed high enough
so that people can walk under
them easily. The light should be
directed downward evenly over
the house. Poultry hbtise light
ing normally results in each hen
producing 4 to 5 more eggs per
month during the short days of
winter.
QUESTION: How much grain
| should be fed dairy qcws during
the winter?
ANSWER. This depends, ,»ays
John A.' Arey, Extension dairy -
| man of N. C. State College, on
I the quantity and quality of
roughage available, and on the
percentage of fat in the milk
I produced. Grain should be look
| ed upon as a suplement to roug
hage. If the cows receive all the
i gccd quality roughage they will
! consume Without waste, a Jers
ey or Guernsey should get'
1 slightly more grain than a Hol
stein or Ayrshire. For instance,
a Guernsey or Jersey producing
20 pounds of milk daily needs
about 6 pounds of grain per day,
whereas a Holstein or Ayrshire
producing 20 pounds of milk
daily needs about 4 pounds of
grain.
QUESTION: How many
pounds of edible meat can be
expected from various types of
meat animals?
ANSWER: Animal husband
men of N. C. State College re
port that a hog dresses out a
bout 75 percent of its live
weight. In other words, about 188
pounds of edible meat is obtain
ed from a 250-pound hog. Beef
dresses out 53 percent of its live
weight, veal 61 percent, lamb 47
percent, and chickens from 65
to 75 percent. Lard from a 250-
pound hog will average 25 to 30
pounds, or 10 to 12 percent of its
live weight.
